Prompt for new password

[Tony]

Hello,

I am working on an unattended installation and need for it
to prompt for the user to input a new password. I am using
a generic password for the first logon so I can run an
installation script to load some other files, but when it
finishes loading IE6 and reboots, I would like for it to
prompt the user for a new password. I have not been able
to find any scripts that will do this. Does anyone have
any ideas?

Thanks....

Tony

How about:

NET USER <USERNAME> *

Will prompt for a new password.
